OK got the AJS EOS MkII some years ago. Was going to just rebuild it but then got dreams of grandeur !. So I'm going to drop a 1996 VRX400 engine into the frame (which has been done before). Going to have to build new engine mounts as I reckon the originals don't line up close enough.

Got a question for all you VRX400 owners out there about the original engine mounts. There are two front and one rear and it seems to me that these are all metal to metal mounts. I do not see any rubber bushings involved. Is this correct ?.

And I think that the rear mount uses the same bolt that secures the swinging arm or are there separate rear hangers involved. If anbody can add some close up pictures of their VRX engine mounts then I'd apprecate it.
